A POSTCARD-PERFECT California (Malibu-style) beach house, but in Michigan! Like having a house on the beach in the Caribbean, or for you that are familiar... like having a house right on the Sleeping Bear Dunes Beach.
- Guest comment: “I never knew anything like this existed in Michigan!” - PERFECT white sugar-sand beach! Walk the beach for MILES! - Huge dunes behind! Like Sleeping Bear Dunes! - Feels like you are teleported to the Caribbean! - More like an “Ocean Hideaway” than a lake house - The water has that aquamarine blue with deep blue depths way out - Easily walk far out into the shallow water. Perfect sandy bottom! - Private. Safe. Let the kids do their thing all day while the parents do theirs - Interior upscale, California redwood designer style. - Stunning picturesque views from EVERY WINDOW. - Bring the dog! - Excellent grocery stores. Amazing fun tourist shopping nearby! - Well respected, well known owners. We know everybody! - Some of our renters are flexible and will change weeks! Or, ask about our other homes in the area. -Perfect for the kids.
You have your own PRIVATE, huge sand dunes in the back yard. Why drive to Sleeping Bear Dunes, when you have your own. Spend hours climbing the dunes and be rewarded with a spectacular 360-degree view of Cathead Bay and Leelanau County from the top (I’m going to ask one of our guests this year to share a picture from the top). The public is not allowed to park their cars to climb the dunes or enter the State park next door or they will be towed. They would have to hike in for miles to reach this spot.
You have literally miles and miles of idyllic sandy beach to walk, run, kayak, board, snorkel, dive, fish, or swim. This property is located just a short distance from the State Park. There is no one around. You’ll feel like Tom Hanks in Castaway.
This is Lake Michigan at its best. Magnificent sunsets set right into the water directly in front! No two sunsets are EVER the same. Every night you can take a different, beautiful picture of the sun setting right into the “ocean”. Look for the GREEN FLASH! It is what everyone looks for each night.
Don't forget the perfect Bonfire on the Beach. There is something magical about S’mores and an open fire on a perfect star gazing night with the sound of surf rolling in! How many island vacations allow that to happen? This really makes for magical nights.
When heading off onto the deck, there are NO city sounds, just the sound of the surf and the crickets. Bring a telescope or use our really great binoculars to stargaze. For those of you not used to the Northern Michigan sky at night, you are going to be amazed. When there is no city light pollution, the view is spectacular.
In addition to the above, this is one of the best bays on Lake Michigan to kayak, kite sail, or rent a jet ski. The fishing is world class, with salmon, walleye, and fly-fishing that draws people from all the way around the world. We can help point you in the direction for any boat or fishing help. Many folks have rented boats and kayaks and plop them right outside in the Lake.
Inside the house:
This is designer-decorated 'California type Beach House' that sleeps up to 20.
Our California-style beach home has a huge open living room and dining room with exposed California redwood walls and beautiful top to bottom expanse of windows that offer a commanding view of beautiful Cathead Bay. The house was allowed to be built on top of a small dune(no longer allowed), so the view is spectacular.
Great indoor-outdoor living with terrific furniture and state of the art grilling on a large deck that overlooks the Lake Michigan dunes.
The house has 2 MR BR's upstairs with beach/water view with 2 BR's down and huge separate bunkroom. 5 BR/3 BA(sleeps 20)
We haven’t even touched on the restaurants, wineries or shopping! You are short drive to cute Northport, with grocery store and fun restaurants. A few more minutes and you can be in Leland with Fishtown or Suttons Bay with all of its shops and restaurants. In addition, Leelanau County is now home to some of the best wineries in the country. We love this area and will give you all the best places to visit.
We never want a week to go by without a delighted guest. We listen to EVERYTHING you say and want you to go tell all your friends that this was absolutely the best place you enjoyed on vacation, EVER! Give us a call and we’ll make sure you are our next delighted guest at Beachy Dunes!
